“Word Lens: Christ through the Scriptures” Our defence against the devil is growth in the knowledge of God’s word. Here are some key points to note in Bible interpretation: - The most important thing is to know the person the Bible speaks of. And that person is Christ. - We must note that a lot of metaphors were used to describe Jesus. Therefore, we must seek to understand what it truly means. - God judges greatness by our encounter with the truth. Your first primary encounter must be the Word of God. The word of God is your security, and Jesus remains the focus.

Joy Is a Miracle

Psalm 1:1-6 The emphasis of Psalm 1 is that we should have nothing to do with the negative but prevalent culture. The culture we live in will make us feel like its way is the only way to happiness. We even give God the sense that we are sacrificing and missing a lot for him. God doesn't want us to only be saved, He wants us to be both happy and saved. It's an inheritance consciousness to know that you have received something great in Christ. Let your Christian life filter into your casual conversations. God has caused us to delight in his light so that his passion and ours will be consistent. Following Jesus is a thing of joy. It is more profitable than all our treasures. What will happen when our walk with God is put to test? Take, for instance, the rich young man in the parable. Matthew 19:16-22. He was unhappy when Jesus asked him to sell his possessions. If a rich man of our time should say the same to a young entrepreneur today, he’d do that gladly but we have a different perceptive when it comes to God. Some of us have spent the best of our lives trying to impress people. You have to learn to be secure in the will of God. Stop caring about what they think about you.

Dealing with Insecurities Matthew 13:3-22. Why are many Christians unfruitful, ever learning but not coming to the knowledge of the truth? Why do we come to church and learn the word repeatedly? As a good farmer, evacuate things that compete with the health of the seed. Some believers have the Samson Syndrome- so strong in the manifestations of the spirit but the wisdom of God isn’t filtrating into other aspects of your life! This is something to deal with otherwise, one won’t experience growth! Spiritual growth is theology influencing our thoughts and actions. We have two extremes to teaching: 1. Those that no matter what is taught, they want to see the practicalities immediately. 2. Those whose teachings are so grandiose and eloquent, littered with Greek and Hebrew words but still not relevant to the lives of those who listen. There should be a balance to this and we can see from Paul’s letters how he consistently explains the revelation of the believer’s identity and its implications in his life. Many struggle with connecting the dots between the revelation of who they are and the implication of that knowledge. We can clearly see Jesus bring in doctrinal truths into everyday contexts. How you handle situations, shows how much understanding you have of the Word of God. And in dealing with insecurities, this is not a psychological topic or one for those that are babes in the kingdom! And in dealing with it, the word of God is enough!

Proverbs 4:20‭-‬23 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.  The word of God requires attention. If you are not careful, the word you were excited about yesterday will be nonexistent tomorrow. Attention is important for retention. Be careful of unnecessary arguments about the potency of the word because some may trigger doubts and that will affect the flow of the supernatural in your life.  Anything you want to see in your life, pay attention to it. Facts are not determined by experience. If you think God does not heal, it won't stop him from healing but it will affect the flow of healing in your life.  God is not a figment of our imagination. Never because of your experience reconfigure your convictions about God. Your theology must always be based on the scriptures alone. Let your knowledge of the word of God influence your experience. Hold on to the word and insist on it.

3 Cardinal Factors in every successful romantic relationship Romance Duty Purpose

Lovecode Conference (17th February 2019) – Pst. Laju Iren 

Exercising Your Victory Over Sin Overcoming Temptation. A lot of people are going through stuff that leads to two different outcomes: 1. Some have fought so hard, they've given up and their consciousness is seared. 2. Some keep fighting and because of how often they fall, they are driven into self-pity and so they are feeling sorry all the time.  Your spirit should gain ascendency over your flesh but there are times when the flesh wins and your response should be I have an advocate with the Father!  The scripture already gives us a clear picture of how temptations should be handled. Colossians 3:9, Ephesians 4:22.  Paul says we should mortify the deeds of the flesh! So a headless chicken can still jerk back to life and run around even though it's dead because of the activities of its impulse, so it's very possible, as a believer who is dead to sin to still see some activities of the flesh come to play! A believer can still have little struggles but doesn't change the fact that he is dead to sin! When Paul said mortify, we can liken it to catching that already dead chicken and putting it down!  Romans 6:3-6, the burial of Jesus was the destruction of the body of sin! Your victory over sin will always be a faith walk, total dependency on what Christ has done!  Romans 8:1-3, the death of Jesus was God's solution to the sin problem! Reckon that the death of Jesus is enough! No matter what you struggle with now.  Every time I overcome a temptation, I am demonstrating to the world, Jesus' resurrection! Ephesians 2:1-6.

Knowing Christ helps you fulfill the following: 1. In Christ, you will enjoy your singleness 2. You will choose right 3. You will have the right model.  Enjoying your singleness: If you do not enjoy your singleness you won't enjoy your relationship. When you are too needy you'll become less attractive. The irony is you will work better with someone when you stand alone. If you are not satisfied in Christ first and foremost you will never be satisfied. Understanding that the most important person in the world loves you regardless, would change your perspective to life. God's plan for you is that you can be so satisfied in him that you give others. Let nobody take the place of God even in marriage.  It is Christ that completes you not a man. You'll choose right a hen you are not desperate you will choose right.  Have the right model Matthew 20:25-28. Our right model should be Christ. Christ is our standard in marriage. If Christ is your standard in marriage, the stakes are high.  All the things you complained about in your marriage are the very things you are to use to show the love of Christ.  You have more opportunities to show the love of Christ when your partner is weak. If you are going to love like Christ, you would not wait for the response from your partner.  It is very possible to love like Christ because we have the Holy Spirit. God wants our marriage to be a testimony of his love. Not only is His love overwhelming, never-ending and reckless but so is our love.

Church Mind

The love walk of a believer is explained in how we forgive our debtors because our debts have been forgiven. We are to emulate the life of Christ as believers. We should be challenged and inspired by the life of Jesus Christ and the things He did. To walk in love is to be vulnerable to hurt. That’s the life we have been called to live and Jesus did it too. Isaiah 53:7. As believers, we have a standard for forgiveness and we see Christ as the model.  There is an endurance and a consistency to love. Everybody responds to love and as children of God, we should show love to the undeserving. When we encounter difficult people, we ought to take it as an opportunity to demonstrate the love of Christ because that may be the only chance some people have to see God. It’s our destiny and calling to show God in our devotion and our conduct with people. One of the greatest statements of the redemptive work is that love will always overcome. No matter how powerful evil is, love is always more powerful.

Righteousness Consciousness.  What's more important than fasting and praying is knowing how to receive from God. Ephesians 3:2 - Our disposition is to understand that God is willing and able to do even more than what we think or ask, according to the power that works in us.  Galatians 3:5 - It is by God's Spirit in us that we can be assured of miracles happening for us.  We have God's Spirit by believing in His righteousness, accepting that Jesus died for our sins so we're righteous because He has cleaned our sins through His death.  Believing Jesus' death and resurrection is His righteousness, not ours - which is self-righteousness.  When He died, you died - because He did in your place. When He resurrected, you did too. So you're as He is right now, if you believe in Him. So there's nothing like us praying and God, not hearing. In Romans 5:1, Paul says "We have received access into this grace, wherein we stand and rejoice in the hope of the glory of God."

God is the father of Lights. He is goodness in its perfection. You will never see a better definition of ‘good’. Nothing comes close in describing goodness. There is no evil in God. He has never done evil, He will never do evil. He is consistently good and He is light. This is such an important conviction to have. Just as the sun is a consistently beaming source of light, God is constantly good. If you study God and see evil, you’re looking through the wrong lens. The sun doesn’t rise or set, the planets move. When there is darkness, its because our planet is backing the sun. In the same way, our experience is as a result of our position. The giving of Jesus as a sacrifice for our sins is an everlasting demonstration of God’s love for us. We don’t get to doubt his love anymore because Jesus died. Everything you will ever bring to the table is in response to His generosity. God is always initiating when it comes to love. He is never the one responding or playing catch-up. He is always outgoing when it comes to love. He is proactive in love. In the memo of salvation, if you receive this generous gift of love, you MUST reciprocate the love to your neighbour. It is not about what the neighbour did, it’s about Christ and His love. The sacrifice of Christ bestows on us the responsibility to love as nothing else does. The redemptive work of Christ has empowered us to love by the Holy Ghost. In Christ, our propensity is to love, forgive and be generous. Don’t accept a temperament that’s not in line with your nature in Christ.

Don’t accept a temperament that’s not in line with your nature in Christ.

The Believer's Lovewalk

In the parable of the sower, Jesus described some seeds which fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up and choked them. He explained that he who received seed among the thorns is he who hears the word, and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. Matthew 13:7&amp;22 The effectiveness of the word is not about how viable the seed is but where it falls. No matter how much you are growing in the word of God, if you don't learn how to handle trials, you'll have issues. To be anxious is to have full mental distress or uneasiness because of fear of danger or misfortune; to be greatly worried. Our culture thrives on worry. There is always something to be worried about. Worry is a bad habit. It is a bad method of handling pressure. There are other ways of handling pressure. The concerns may be legitimate but worrying is going about them the wrong way. Some people are even worried about things that are going well because they fear that it will end one day. Sometimes we create scenarios that are not real and we are worried about them. According to research, 95% of people who visit physicians visit for stress-related issues.
